Alessia Cara’s New Song for Moana Is So Gosh-Darn Motivating

Share

While the legendary demigod in Disney’s upcoming Moana might technically be the Rock’s animated Māui, the title of Musical Demigod certainly goes to Hamilton’s own Lin-Manuel Miranda, who helped write the score for the family-friendly film. A few days after Moana teased a clip of “You’re Welcome” — a catchy Miranda-penned track sung by the Rock himself — a new, complete song has now been released, with pop babe Alessia Cara taking the reigns on the track “How Far I’ll Go.” (And, yes, it’s also written by Miranda, who’s one step closer to that precious EGOT.) It’s inspirational, cheerful, and catchy — perfect for a Disney film.
